On 15 May 2025, the twelve participants of Serial Eyes #12 presented their original series concepts at the programme’s Final Pitch at SoHo House in Berlin. This closed industry event marks the culmination of Europe’s leading postgraduate training programme for television writers and showrunners.
Over the course of eight intensive months, these twelve aspiring writers from around the world have developed bold, original series, honing their collaborative and creative skills in a writers’ workshop. Under the guidance of internationally recognised showrunners, producers and writers, the participants have explored the entire development cycle of a series — from concept creation to pitching and beyond.
